With this app, you can use various tabs, smart address bar, support for bookmark folders/bookmarks, incognito mode, and more! The sound for this browser wasn’t very good, but hopefully, you won’t experience that problem as I did.

To use the browser, you’ll need to use Android 4.0 or higher, and there is a trial period for the flash version. If you want access to all the features, you can get the premium version for $9.99.

2. FlashFox – Flash Browser

FlashFox will deliver great sound when you watch your flash videos. It also doesn’t require that you enable flash since it’s already enabled. It also features incognito mode, and you can also save reading material for later.

At the top, you’ll see various section tabs such as top sites, bookmarks, history, synced tabs, recent tabs, and reading list. It even has an auto fill feature that will certainly save you time when it’s time to fill out forms.

The app will automatically zoom in to avoid eye strain. The premium version lets you enjoy premium browsing and support continued development.

3. FLV Player

FLV Player is an app that will only play flash videos you have on your Android device. It doesn’t have a flash feature that will allow you to see flash videos on a site. You can control the aspect ratio, display brightness, and screen rotation.

It also offers faster HD video playback, built-in multi media files with automatic identification for all video files. It also supports video formats such as:

4. Puffin Browser

Besides being a fast browser, Puffin is also a browser that offers cloud protection. Puffin’s servers are encrypted and will keep you safe from hackers. If you ever have to browse the web on a public WiFi, it’s safe to do so on Puffin but not on most browsers.

You won’t have to worry about updating to the latest version of flash since it will always be up to date. The browser also uses property compression algorithm to transmit web data to your Android device. You can save as much as 90% of bandwidth but keep in mind that if you watch videos or flash content that will require more use of bandwidth.

Choose to use either the desktop or mobile version of a site or opt to search either using Bing, Google, Yahoo, or Wikipedia. Download files as big as 1GB and enjoy the virtual trackpad and gamepad.
